Slitting Saw, HSS Circular Saw Blade - EU manufacturer

GSP - High Tech Saws, s.r.o., resident in Zborovice, is a traditional
cutting tools (slitting saw)
producer. The beginnings of the manufacture date back to the year 1948 when the Pilana company established its branch there and started producing metal cutting circular saw blades from the very beginning. All produced tools were delivered under the name PILANA until 1992, SCHULER PILANA until 1999 and are now known as GSP- High Tech Saws.

The logo change reflects our change of customer service strategy. We have evolved from a mass supplier of standard tools to the supply of specialized saw blades and knives (in small quantities) in accordance with market needs. We believe that you as our client will benefit from our company mission of non-standard industrial knives and milling cutters production. The continous investing in new and advanced production processes, closely controlled by sound technical and commercial management expertise has brought GSP - High Tech Saws, s.r.o. to the forefront in the manufacture and sale of HSS
slitting saw blades and circular knives
. GSP - High Tech Saws, s.r.o. is the only producer of HSS metal cutting sawblades in the Czech Republic.

in diameters varying up to 720 mm in various designs. The tooth forms most used are HZ, BW, B, AW, A, VP and 'Chipbreaker' . Production is based on DIN standards 1836, 1837, 1838 and 1840, extended by the refined company GSP manufacturing standards. The delivery program consists of a range of standard sawblades which can be delivered from stock and a range of special sawblades to be produced to customer specifications. The HSS sawblades are supplied as standard in high speed steel grade M2 = DIN 1.3343, but can also be delivered in cobalt-alloyed steel grades, such as M35 = DIN 1.3243 and S390 Powder Metallurgy Steel. These blades are specifically suited for use in manual, semi-automatic and fully-automatic sawing operations. All blades are hardened to 64/65 RC, triple tempered and press quenched. This manufacturing method produces the flattest and straightest saw blade in the world today. The HSS slitting sawblades can be supplied in among other things bright, steam-treated, flash-chrome, titanium nitride, titanium aluminium nitride, titanium carbon nitride or chrome nitride coated design. HSS-DMo5

Hot and Friction Saw Blades for Metal Cutting - GSP Zborovice

Hot and Friction
Saw Blades
up to 2500 mm diameter are tools of high efficiency made from well proven steel plates with a tensile strenght of 850 bis 950 N/mm2. Friction saw blades are used for cutting of steel tubes and profiles by low working temperature, it means by material temperature up to 250°C. They are made from chrom-vanadium steel marked (DIN 1.2235) and they are heat-treated to reach the optimum ratio of tenacity and hardness, which is suitable for cutting of material with high circumferential cutting speed. The cutting principal consists in melting of material in cut place caused by special kind of teeth. GSP - High Tech Saws, s.r.o. can manufacture these tools with taper of hollow ground. Choice of flange diameter, number of teeth, central bore diameter, thickness, driving holes number and diameter is possible. Hot and friction slitting saw blades are used for cutting slabs - square billets - plates - tubes ? profiles. Hot saw blades are used to cut metals with a temperature in excess of 850°C. When sawing metals below a temperature of 250°C, friction
saw blades
are used. Both sawing methods are a friction cutting. The friction heat in the cutting gap ae produces temperatures which bring the material in a soft, almost plastic condition. In order to clear debris from the tooth gullet a copiuos or heavy flow of coolant (preferably under high pressure) is essential for efficient cutting . The required cutting speed is Vc=100-140 m/sec. Depending on the material to be cut the feed reached is Vf=80-2000 mm/min. The tooth geometry and tooth pitch are determined by the section and quality (analysis) of the material to be cut and the sawing machine. Heat treatment of the saw blades of 1200-1250 N/mm² (up to 1000 mm diameter) or hardening of the teeth up to Rockwell C 58 (up to 2500 diameter) gives an increase in both blade life and in number of cuts between resharpening.

HSS circular knives

In the product range of GSP - High Tech Saws, s.r.o. company there are also high-efficient cutting tools manufactured on request which are generally known as circular knives. In detail, our range includes:

Segmental saw blades

The segmental circular sawblades
consist of a CrV steel disc on to which hardened toothed segments are mounted and secured by rivets. This principle makes it possible to repair a segmental sawblade after tooth or segment breakage by simple replacing one or more segments. Our current capacity range for segmental slitting saw blades is 10" diameter thru 120" diameter. Within this range we produce special diameters and thicknesses that offer our customers the widest spectrum of products. The most commonly used tooth forms are HZ and BW. They are produced and controlled to the GSP manufacturing standards whereby precise sizing and close tolerances are guaranteed. The segmental sawblades are supplied as standard in high speed steel grade M2 = DIN 1.3343, but can also be supplied in cobalt-alloyed steel, such as M35 = DIN 1.3243 and M42 = DIN 1.3247.The segmental sawblades can be delivered in bright, titanium nitride, titanium carbon nitride, titanium aluminium nitride or chrome nitride coated design.

TCT circular slitting saws and cermet tipped saws

The tungsten carbide tipped sawblade (TCT) consists of a CrV steel disc to which carbide tips are brazed. Company GSP produces TCT sawblades in diameters from 150 to 2000 mm in various designs. The TCT sawblades are produced and controlled to the strick GSP manufacturing standards. The delivery program consists of 2 main groups, one range of TCT for ferrous and non-ferrous materials. The standard program can be supplied from stock, while special sawblades are produced to customer specifications.

HM carbide tipped circular saw blades for light alloys

HM carbide tipped circular saws suitable for cutting-off pipes, profiles and solids in light alloys (aluminium etc.) The toothing presents a pre-cutter and a finishing tooth, with a positive angle (12?) for solids cutting and a negative angle (16?) for pipes and profiles cutting. Available with a 32 mm central bore and 2/11/63 pinholes. On request we can manufacture the blades with central bores of 25,4 - 30 - 40 and 50 mm.

HM carbide tipped circular saw blades for dry cutting

HM carbide tipped circular saws suitable for dry cutting of metals, plastics, compound materials and wood on portable machines (Bosch, Makita, Hitachi, Jepson, Black&Decker, etc.) Available with different diameters from 110 mm to 350 mm and with a central bore of 20 - 25,4 - 30 and 32 mm according to the machine.

HM carbide tipped circular saw blades for steel cutting

HM carbide tipped circular slitting saws suitable for cutting steel solids or profiles with big wall thickness. The special patented tooth form allows these special blades to drastically reduce the cutting times and improves the surface finishing if used on the right machine. Our range covers different diameters from 250 mm to 315 mm with a central bore of 32 and 4/9/50 pinholes or diameters from 360 to 460 mm with central bore 50 mm and 4/16/80 pinholes. Also available with cermet toothing or TiN coated.

Alpha Cutter - Alpha Shear blades

Alpha cutters
- alpha shear blades are the cut-off knives for cutting profiles and tubes. The cutting effect of alpha cutters is achieved with combination of high pressure and high speed. Burrfree cut of highest precision is achieved and the cut profile is free of deformation. Very short cutting times enable using these alpha cutters shear blades not only in stationary machines, but also in production lines during continuous cutting. In standard modification Alpha Cutters - alpha shear blades are made with PVD coating to prolong their lifetime, decrease friction coefficient and to avoid cool surfacing. These tools aren?t standardized at all, that?s why they are always tailored. For making the offer sending the drawing or sample is enough.
